Effects of an expanding supratentorial mass on the auditory brain-stem responses in baboons.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
This study was carried out to investigate the effects of an expanding supratentorial mass on auditory brain-stem responses (ABRs). A balloon was inserted into the supratentorial epidural space of seven baboons (in two cases, in the right occipital area; in five cases, in the right temporal area). The balloons were inflated at a rate of 0.2 ml/minute to increase intracranial pressure (ICP). ICP (right frontal epidural pressure) and blood pressure (BP) were continuously recorded. Recordings of ABRs (vertex to mastoid on both sides) were made serially. Pupillary changes were also recorded. At 30 mmHg ICP, the amplitude of wave V on the right side was observed to be significantly attenuated (p less than 0.02). At 50 mm Hg ICP, the latency of wave V on the right side was significantly prolonged compared with that at 30 mm Hg ICP (p less than 0.02). At 70 mmHg ICP, significantly decreased amplitude of wave V on the left side was also observed (p less than 0.02, from the control), associated with significant increased latency of wave IV on the right side (p less than 0.01, from the control; p less than 0.05, from 50 mm Hg ICP). Finally, waves IV and V on both sides substantially disappeared at 100 mm Hg ICP. Anisocoria appeared in four animals at 30-50 mm Hg (mean +/- SD; 45 +/- 8.7) ICP. The amplitude of wave V was significantly decreased in these circumstances (p less than 0.05).(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
